I'm super excited to tell you all about my upgrade with DISH
satellite television services. This week I had a great team come out to my house to add a Super Joey and Wireless Joey to my system. Throughout this part of the process, I spoke to
several friendly and courteous employees who worked with my schedule to make an appointment.
Even after the date was set, I received automated reminders via phone
and email--good thing too because I probably would have been in my PJs
when they got here. You are also given the option to cancel or
reschedule if necessary.

We were given a window of between one and five for the techs to
arrive and they got here around 1pm, which was pretty good timing since
they had to come all the way from Vineland, NJ which is a few hours
away. The two gentlemen who upgraded by DISH services were both friendly and professional. They got
everything done in record breaking time, and were finished up in about an hour.

Once everything was installed, the guys explained every step of what they were doing along the way. Of course, a
lot of it was over my head. Once the wiring was done, it was time to
install the "hoppers". This like a combination DVR and cable box. It
controls the channels but also allows you to record your favorite
programs. As you can see the box takes up very little space and their
aren't many wires.

Our original box was able to record up to three shows/movies and still allow us to watch a different shows live. Now,thanks to the Super Joey, we can actually record FIVE different shows at the same time without any interruptions in the broadcasting. The Wireless Joey is even cooler. This one I had installed in my room, but I can actually move the television to any room in the house or even the back yard and it will still work!

I'll be doing additional reviews to explain many of the best perks in
more detail, but a few things that stand out in my mind are the ability
to watch Prime Time shows anytime without commercials, being able to see
what the kids are watching no matter where they're at, and the fact
that the hopper will shut itself off after two hours if no one is using
it. And of course, one of the best parts is the DISH Anywhere
service. This allows you to watch TV anywhere you can get an internet
connection on your tablets and phones.

Last but not least, once everything was good to go, we received our
remote. There are a lot of buttons on there but the guys went over most of
them with me to make sure I had the hang of it. You can use the guide to
see what's going on for up to a week in advance, and set it to record so you
can watch at your convenience. You can pause, skip. and rewind even live
TV. There's even a built in pager that helps you find the remote if the
kids hide it on you. I know this happens to me all the time. We once
went a whole week without being able to change the channel so this is a
great feature for families.

Believe me when I tell you, all of this is just the tip of the iceberg.
DISH is so awesome, I couldn't possibly fit it all in one post. There
are lots of things that make it a great service, not the least of which
being the affordable packages they have available. I am definitely glad
I took the leap and upgraded. Keep following New Age Mama for
more of my personal experiences with DISH. In the meantime, you can
